Help[Surname] Re: Irish versus Scottish names: Mc vs. Mac
in reply to a message by Hanna
Well, not completely. Mc and Mac can be either Scottish or Irish...both mean "son of". Less frequently seen are Mhic and M'.
I suppose that you might say that the residents of Northern Ireland are British--but I'd not say that the Irish are British within the hearing of the Irish (LOL).
